[Bug 1358294] Re: App .config not removed when app uninstalled

[Michael Vogt]

The attached branch is now in line with Michał's comment #9 - it will
delete the $XDG_{CONFIG,CACHE}_DIR but leave the data dir.

Title:
  App .config not removed when app uninstalled

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in “click” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  If an app uses ~/.config/foo (say, uses Qt.labs.settings), and the
  user uninstalls the app, ~/.config/foo is not removed. It should be
  deleted when the app is uninstalled.

  Using latest utopic on the phone.

  
  ---------------------
  Desired resolution:

  - When a user deletes an app, 100% of files associated with the app
  should be deleted.

  - Users should not be allowed to delete the key apps that ship with
  the phone.  These key apps are defined as: Dialler, Address book,
  Messaging, Browser, Camera, Music player

  The above will give the user a simple easy to understand mental model
  while simultaneously protecting the user from deleting important
  content within the default apps.
